Mauricio Claver-Carone has a very tough stance toward Cuba\u201d and \u201cthis government has been very accommodating\u201d with Washington, a former Panamanian diplomat told AFP, speaking on the condition of anonymity.<\/p>\n<p>Claver-Carone, Trump\u2019s candidate to head the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), acknowledged before traveling to Panama that the United States had expressed its \u201cconcerns\u201d to the government about Cuban doctors.<\/p>\n<p>Washington considers the sale of Cuban medical services as a \u201cgovernment pattern\u201d of \u201cforced labor,\u201d which serves as propaganda for the island\u2019s communist government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe that the internal pressure of Panamanian doctors contributed to undermine the enthusiasm of the government and the visit of the US officials finished off it,\u201d said Carlos Guevara-Mann, professor of International Relations at Florida State University\u2019s Panamanian campus.<\/p>\n<p>Domingo Moreno, coordinator of the main Panamanian medical union, told AFP that \u201cundoubtedly\u201d the agreement between the Panamanian doctors and the government \u201chad a great influence\u201d on paralyzing the Cuban mission.<\/p>\n<p>But the \u201cemphatic way\u201d in which the United States criticized Cuban doctors \u201cchanged the attitude of the president,\u201d Cortizo added.<\/p>\n<h2>U.S. as Panama\u2019s ally<\/h2>\n<p>Since coming to power in 2019, Cortizo has favored relations with the United States over China, which had gained ground in Panama after the establishment of diplomatic relations in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The United States, Panama\u2019s main trading partner and the first user of its interoceanic canal, is scheduled to donate 250 ventilators, supplies and more than $4 million to the country to fight the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>Cortizo \u201cdoes not fear but has real dread of retaliation from the United States. That fear is more than enough for Panama not to seek resources or help in other countries,\u201d said Julio Yao, professor of international law at the University of Panama.<\/p>\n<p>Guevara-Mann also sees Washington\u2019s influence on the government clearly: \u201cThe United States has a decisive influence on aspects of Panamanian foreign policy that interest or concern it. That is the essence of hegemony,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>However, the former ambassador of Panama to the United States Eloy Alfaro considered that his country \u201chas demonstrated in history its ability to assume positions, in sovereign exercise of autonomy, regardless of pressure from any power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stay Safe!!<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wpcf7 no-js\" id=\"wpcf7-f16536-o1\" lang=\"\"
